From late July until mid August I will be on vacation to my girlfriends family in France. But bad for me (and good for you) this will be a very busy rumor time with plenty of leaks to come. But between one rumor and another I will try to get some rest and enjoy some time with my family and friends by tasting the mysterious red drink the Frenchman call “vin” 🙂
And I thought it could be an idea to schedule some articles written by SAR readers so that they can be posted on SAR while I am lying under the sun. So you feel free to send me your articles you want to be posted here at sonyalpharumors@gmail.com. Please send full text and pictures and the credit you want me to add. You are obviously allowed to link back to your personal blog and it may help some of you to become famous 🙂
So what kind of article are welcome on SAR? First of all want I don’t need are reviews of cameras and lenses that are already well know and out for a long time. I am more interested in real field work narrations (travel stories, fashion photography, extreme conditions reportages). I also like to read curious and funny stories. Small tips and tricks reports are also welcome. In short, stories that usually don’t get posted on classic photography review sites 🙂
One more idea to save me time: Use DealsRunner.com to submit the SOny deals you find on web. Doing so displays the deals on the right sidebar on SAR and you will help other readers to see and grab the deal. It works without my moderation..instantaneously!
This may turn out to be a good deal for us, I can get some couple of hours per day offline and you can promote yourself. Thanks you!

you can send the rumors to me and I can write about it 😉
lol.
I postulate Skywalker, hes like 24/7 on this site.
Nah… not really. Once or twice a day tops. 😉
Have a nice vacation Andrea! And no matter what happens, which rumors you will get – please get some more offline hours per day than only “some couple”. We will survive it don’ worry. But you need a rel break from your hard work here Andrea. And your girlfriend need perhaps a little bit more of her boyfriend in real life 😉
Relax and switch off from SAR-wavelength,

I honestly do not think I will have time for vacation. I have to say that while I am happy to see Sony release all that great stuff soon I am very frustrated that I cannot enjoy my time with my family. It is a problem for me 🙁
Welcome to Europe 🙂
I love France. And I love Germany too 😉
…drop me a line when you are near Arles or near Berlin, maybe we could share the experience of “deguster” this french beverage called “vin” together. I am constantly “pendeln” between those two “endroits”…
I think this is a great idea … looking forward to reading the stories
Thank you for all that you’ve done for us.
Hope you have a great holiday. Sony will probably bring the release forward now they know when you are holiday.
I wish you ,have a good time .Enjoy your holiday.
Enjoy your vacation time!
Take your well deserved time off, “The Sony World” will truly survive a few days without a new rumor, that french girlfriend of yours will surely agree!:-)
When doing so, enjoy some delicious red wine and take a NEX FF Picture of your half empty glass as a toast to all your loyal readers…! Cheers mate.
I’m sure your taking your Pre-Production-Prototype with you…or aren’t you!?:-)
I hope she brakes up so we get more tumors. also, france sucks.
Tu sais ce qu’ils te disent les Francais ?
more ‘tumors’…Andrea would be liable for a law suit.
Bienvenu en France !
Binvinguts , si c’est en Catalogne Nord 🙂
“From late July until mid August I will be on vacation to my girlfriends family”
Grammatically this means: … the family of my girlfriends…
Meaning you have several girlfriends within the same family.
Sorry for the pun. Nothing like a good joke to start the holidays. Enjoy the holidays and the girlfriends.
He’s a player. Going out to France in pimpin’ in full force. Brace yourselves.
…how about starting a thread about unlikely but potentially possible future cameras, that could be fun.
Imagining a Nex HD50 MS for instance. A 50MP sensor seems possible and since the sensor might now be “floating” for the IBIS how about using this feature to have it shift by controllable increments to do some pixel shift multi shot kind of thing and be able to get a 200MP+ shot in studio, architecture or even landscape environments. Just imagine sticking this on a 1980 macro bellows with the at the time ubiquitous slide copy attachment and suddenly you are scanning your Velvia 50 slides with 12000dpi in a second. It’s absurd but could be fun to imagine.
How much are you willing to pay? It’s kind of like asking someone to shoot for free… you know, to get all that great exposure.
